The following libraries and their staff have made the access to their musical and archival collections possible for me: Universitätsbibliothek Heidelberg; Stadt- und Universitätsbibliothek Frankfurt am Main; Bibliothek der Hochschule für Kirchenmusik, Dresden; Württembergische Landesbibliothek, Stuttgart; Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, Munich; Staatsbibliothek Berlin; and Loeb Music Library of Harvard University, Cambridge. I would also like to thank Joachim Steinheuer, Dorothea Redepenning and the Doktorkolloquium of the Musikwissenschaftliches Seminar, Heidelberg, for helpful feedback, discussion, various suggestions as well as constructive criticism. Special gratitude is due to both my supervisors, Silke Leopold and Michael Heymel for their patient, encouraging, and critical trust in the gradual making of this work. Enormous thanks are also due to Stephen Tong and the congregation of the Reformed Evangelical Church of Indonesia for supporting and patiently waiting for my return without being discouraged. Many thanks are owed to Ferdinan Widjaya, Landobasa YMAL Tobing, Stevanus Darmawan, Shirleen Gunawan, Lily Rachmawati, and Lisman Komaladi for proof-reading the manuscript, giving helpful advice on my modest English. Finally, a profound debt of thanks I owe to my wife and daughters for passing with me through the valley of Baca and for making it a place of springs.
